Wednesday- lexington legends baseball

     It's time for middle of the week relax day! We left the lodge and drove to Booneville. There we met 4 of Paula's youth at the public library. Blue, Roxzann, John, and Johnny seemed a little unsure how to take our group at first. Kyle did a great job leading a brief introduction game. He then ”assigned” a couple of our students to make sure each of or guests felt welcomed and included. No surprise to me those assignments really were not necessary as all of our students worked top include our new friends throughout the day.
    We were hoping to catch the Green Jackets at the Legends game, but that was not the case. We had to settle for the Greensboro Grasshoppers instead. Minor league games are not without their fun fan involvement. Taylor and Anaiya were selected for the frozen t-shirt contest.
     After a brief ”shower” *wink, wink* we decided to go on to the campus of the University of Kentucky. It truly is a beautiful campus and we were given a wonderful ”guided” tour by our own Brian Layman!
     We had the opportunity to catch up on Twitter and Facebook add we waited out a storm in the UK Starbuck's. Apparently, Augusta had gotten hammered a few hours earlier by the same band of showers. Thanks, Forrest and Patrick for the updates of the Colorado River (I mean the Springlakes spillway) and the amphitheater.
     The men all ate supper at #Abuelo's, the mexican food embassy (pretty bold statement, but I think they backed it up). We had great food and great fellowship around the table.

*Kyle did not officially put a driving ban on himself, but he did not get behind the wheel today*
